No concessionary rate is offered to regular users of any of the bridges other than to road transport operators who enter into agreement with the Secretary of State in respect of the Erskine Bridge and the Forth Road Bridge Joint Board guaranteeing a minimum number of crossings per month. Under such an agreement the toll is reduced from 50p to 30p per crossing.
